A quick question: does the FMOD API – or FMOD Designer – allow changing the loop points of a sample in real time? Also, is playing extremely short loops (down to the length of a single waveform, less than 1 ms) OK with FMOD or will it cause problems?

Hi Peter,
Yes you can do this, using the low level api. There is no ‘effect’ or gui feature in designer that lets you play around with the loop points so it is just programmer controlled at the moment.

You can also play a 1 sample loop if you want, it is common in chip tunes (mod/s3m/xm/it) to have sample loops like this.
